Based in California's premiere wine country, north of the San Francisco Bay Area, I perform historical research as it pertains to ghostly and paranormal phenomena and

investigate haunted sites using highly developed psychic methods that include remote viewing and psychometry. I use some of the material egnerated by these investi-gations to write my books. A list of published books is given on the MY BOOKS page of this website.

   With a wealth of material about the paranormal, I often appear on radio and television and at book eventsor special gatherings to talk about technical and psychic methods of ghost hunting, methods for researching the history of haunted places, and methods of increasing one's sensitivity to ghosts and other paranormal phenomena. Check out the ABOUT US page for a description of my ghost hunting methods.

   I also serve as a consultant for people who have had unpleasant or bothersome ghostly activity in their home, workplace, or other location. Check out the SERVICES page in this website. Visit the CONTACT US page and send me an e-mail about your experience with a ghost or unexplainable phenomena and I'll help you analyze the situation and identify a solution.  

   Check out the Photo Gallery for photographs of paranormal phenomena from my ghost hunts and pictures submitted to me by readers.

   On the Paranormal Question of the Week page, I will answer the question most often submitted to me in the past week.  

   Check out a recent addition to this website: SPIRIT PUBLISHING. After many years experiencing the highs and lows of creating fiction and non-fiction books, enduring the editing process, and waiting more than a year to see a manuscript in print, Jeff Dwyer has launched a new publishing service for authors of paranormal, supernatural, and New Age fiction and non-ficton that will serve as a fast track to success.
